The first Sunday of every month Montreuil-Bellay hosts its monthly Brocante (flea-market).
The heart of this small town comes alive as locals, tourists and bargin hunters mill around stalls full of curiosities.
With a little patience, perserverance and bartering a French treasure or two can be found to take home to remind you of your time in the Loire Valley.
One of our favourite brocantes to visit Montreuil-Bellay is dominated by a impressive fairy-tale château....
....which can be visited after a busy morning of mooching around the brocante and a picnic lunch along the river edge at the feet of the château.
